Beyond Self Storage in Maplewood, MN opens for business.

February 22, 2018

BeyondSelf Storage at Maplewood, a new state-of-the-art, drive-thru self-storage facility with over 100,000 SF of space that is now one of the largest facilities in the Minneapolis area, opened for business on February 14th and started renting units that day.

“It was great to rent a couple units on the day we opened, including the unit rented to Mr. Chickett, who received a $50 gift certificate to a nearby restaurant for being our first customer,” said Stevey Heinrich, Operations Manager for Beyond Self Storage. “We’re confident that our first project in Minneapolis will do very well, but it felt good to rent the first couple rentals under our belt,” Heinrich added.

The facility is conveniently located off Minnesota 36 & English Street at 1315 Cope Avenue East, across the street from Holiday Stationstores. It took 12 months to construct, it opened according to schedule, and it is the fourth self-storage project to be developed and operated by NorthPoint Development, a Kansas City-based firm that launched the Beyond Self Storage brand and a multi-facility development initiative in February 2016, spanning multiple major metro markets.

"We are really excited to open the first of multiple projects we have planned for the Minneapolis area,” said Ben Hagedorn, Director of Beyond Self Storage Operations for NorthPoint Development. "There are no facilities currently offering the same kind of modern amenities in the surrounding area and Beyond Self Storage will be one of the only drive-thru facilities with 100% climate control to serve residents and businesses in Maplewood, St. Paul, Oakdale, Little Canada, Vadnais Heights, and North St. Paul,” added Hagedorn.

Beyond Self Storage at Maplewood features a number of amenities that distinguish it from other self-storage facilities in the area, including a drive-thru loading area with complimentary carts & dollies, 100% climate control (including drive-thru), state-of-the-art security, including computerized access control, digital video recorded cameras and motion-detected lighting, a business center with conference table, workstations, printer/copier and free Wi-Fi, online rentals and a self-service kiosk, a complete line of moving & packing supplies, and professional on-site management.
